You sure you meant the southern tip? That is probably one of the safer coastal areas.

I tend to agree. Though it is high and mighty of me, I would say that Somalia is a lawless nation and greatly resembles the Barbary Coast of North Africa in the days of Presley O'Bannon (ooh-rah~!). Therefore, we should ID the bad-guy hideouts and do some surgical strikes with cruise missiles. That way we can avoid the "Blackhawk Down" syndrome and have plausible deniability (like Pakistan for instance).
